Disappointed with take 5 oil change: loose oil filter caused oil leak
Recently, I went to Take 5 Oil Change in Sumter, South Carolina to get my oil changed, but my experience didn't quite meet my expectations. Despite getting my oil changed, my car began leaving oil spots on my driveway just two days later. Alarmed, I checked underneath the car and found that the oil filter was loose and could be turned by hand. To make matters worse, it was dripping with oil.
Honestly, I was pretty disappointed with this experience. After taking the time to go and get my oil changed, I never imagined that I would have to deal with a loose oil filter, let alone one that was causing my car to leak oil. It definitely put a damper on my day and made me question whether or not I would return to Take 5 Oil Change in the future.
Overall, I think that Take 5 Oil Change needs to step up their game when it comes to ensuring that their customers' cars are taken care of properly. While I might be willing to give them another try in the future, they'll need to demonstrate that they can do a better job before I'll feel confident returning.

inform you that I have witnessed two employees in gray shirts go into a car that was parked, leaving everyone else in the store to run the shop. When they came out, I was still in line, and I saw smoke coming out of the vehicle. My window was down and it smelt like marijuana. Those two employees looked a little slow afterwards, and a little lost.

We took our Subaru forester for oil change. Drove out of garage to find car was acting very strange- we find out they drained our transmission fluid! And potentially put oil in in! Currently- they towed our car to a place they have a contract with. It is not a certified Subaru dealership.
There’s a sticker right in the bottom of my oil pan with an arrow pointing to the drain plugs is 18 foot pounds of torque. They strip my oil pan out and they knew it and let me drive away.
There is metal shavings all around the shroud, fresh metal shavings Bunch of incompetent boobs at your Green Bay Main Street. Take five oil change.
